I want to use deep zoom in Silverlight, but it seems that the images don't get sharp when I'm using my Silverlight application in a standalone html file, and not through iis. I'm able to zoom in and out, but the images is blurred. This works fine if I'm using a asp.net web site. Is it at all possible to use Silverlight deep zoom without iis?

A: 

Yes it is possible. Deep zoom creates a test htm in the ClientBin folder of the Web project it creates when you export. I can open my copy of this HTM directly from the file system and all the multi scale functions continue to work fine.

Are you sure this works for you? When I try this I am able to zoom in and out and pan the image, but it stays blurred.

Yes I'm sure, I can't understand why it wouldn't work, all the URLs are relative to the ClientBin folder, it shouldn't matter whether the protocol is file:/// or http://

I agree it should work, but I have tried for quite a while now, and the results are the same. So frustrating!

Can you provide more details? For example how many images have you stiched together, what resolution are the source images?

I'm trying to just make a test at first, so I used Deep Zoom Composer and added only 3 images. They are 3504x2336, 3504x2336 and 2272x1704. You can see one of my test her: http://josteinskaar.com/tests/silverlight/silverzoom1a/test.html. THis is the Tag Browser template. I tried with other exports as well.

I found the problem. Kirupa.com tipped me to use http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/, and then I found my problem: A lot of "HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found" messages. I carelessly had used norwegian characters in my image names.
